His final two releases, Knillssonn and Flash Harry were unpublicized and unreleased in America, respectively and remain underexposed. The release of Knillssonn had the misfortune to come just before the death of Elvis. Shortly before his death in 1994, he had finished a "comeback" album, Papa's Got a Brown New Robe which has yet to be released.

He left behind a widow, Una, and their six children, plus another child from a previous marriage.
